Giants Have $2.2 Million In Cap Space, Seventh Least In NFL

Excerpt: "New York Giants General MangerJerry Reese is known for playing things close to the salary cap and at the rough midway point of the 2012 season we see no exception: only six NFL teams have less cap space than the Giants $2.2 million. TheJacksonville Jaguars lead the league with $20.1 million and the San Francisco 49ers bringing up the rear with a mere $579,000.

Hat tip to the boys atProfootballtalk.com, who present these NFLPA numbers (i.e. not the League's version) of the numbers just in case things start to rattle near todays 4 p.m.NFL trade deadline." Read more..

Whay would a team sit on 20million like Jax? Why wouldnt you use that 20 to frontload a few contracts, effectively puttin cap in the bank for future seasons?

If we had 20, we could front load Eli and JPP, leaving waaay more cash available for next year to do with what we like right? Seems like faulty management to me but surely there mus be a factor I am missing?

They likely are not as profitable as they want to be for whatever reasons; tickets aren't selling out, not enough merchandise sales etc. Arizona use to sit on 20-30 million every season for reasons like this.

I knew I was missing something. We have plenty of revenue, not everyone else does.
